[Mike Davis]

The following information was provided by Bill Repucci...

------------------------------------------------------------

On Saturday, April 22nd EAA chapter 309 will sponsor a builders workshop for
those interested in learning basic metal working skills.

The workshop will include the construction of a Van's tool box. Lunch will be
provided. The class will be held in the greater Charlotte area (We are still
negotiation on shop space). The price will be depend on space rental but we
expect the cost to be between $25 and $35 for the day's training.

At the end of the day you will get to take the tool box home with you along
with the skills you will learn.

Sign up by emailing me at buildatoolbox@yahoo.com. The class will be limited
to 20 people.

Although the kits are provided by Van's (www.vansaircraft.com), people who
desire to build other types of aircraft are strongly encouraged to attend.

If you have already built a metal aircraft or are currently building one and
would like to share your experience with others, please email me. The more
instructors we have the more our students will get out of the class.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Toolbox Kit

Practice Project

The Toolbox Kit comes with documentation, along with all the parts and rivets
needed to complete the toolbox. This training project consists of several pre-
punched parts that are riveted together to form the box and lid and a hinge
to hold them together.

This training project will give you the chance to try several different styles of
riveting, using aluminum parts identical to those that make up the airplane.
The completed toolbox is just the thing for a traveling tool kit when your RV
is done or for holding your safety wire supplies, etc. Finished toolbox
measures 16"L X 6"W X 4"H.
